I liked hearing two speakers, from different perspectives, to see real people telling their painful stories
really hit home. Also, everyone's non judgmental attitudes felt safe.

I really appreciate how no one is judging here and how both offenders and victims speak. It is very different
from other panels. I actually felt kindness in the room.

The story from the mother, it made me think of how my own mother would react. I'm 25 and I just noticed when I got here that my mom must have put a bag of carrots in my
purse. She still thinks of me as her little girl and losing me would crush her. I didn’t
think about that till now.

I am glad they have this class. It helped me realize what can happen if I
were to make bad decisions when drinking. The community members
were very nice and had a lot of touching stories.

community and family that I am better than what I was. I want you to know I am not

i thought it was so amazing that Mrs. Remer can share her experience with us. i
really think she will change a lot of people's minds about drinking and driving, not
wearing seatbelts, talking on a cell phone while driving, and just being attentive. i
think it is really cool this will change peoples lifes.

their letters
